I haven't watched it yet, but The Bastard Son and the Devil Himself might be solidly in some folks' wheelhouse (it's apparently an adaptation of a book series called Half Bad.)
Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I’m watching Andor at the rate of 2 episodes a week. It’s become a standing thing with a couple of friends on Sunday evening. (Holiday stuff will disrupt it this coming Sunday.) The last episode we watched with the heist and the astronomical event was amazingly beautiful. I wish I’d seen it on a big screen.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.
Oh shit, I don't think I finished season one! Gotta get on that.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I watched OFMD over the weekend (DH and son are away, so I can actually watch things). I am glad that I went in knowing it was renewed.
I will bet a shiny nickel that:
1) A lot of that writers room has written fic at some point or other
2) Lucius is not fucking dead.
2a) Secret passages are involved.
3) If they get to end the series on their own terms, there will be an immense amount of fuckery, fake deaths, and sailing off into the sunset...errr...rise.
I have also read all the contemporaneous comments here and need to stretch my neck from all the nodding.

They definitely introduced "fuckery" early on to slip around the historical record.
I mean, even if you get into Anne Bonny's actual history the record suggests fuckery.

Beeee! Best droid ever, and the only one that people actually treat like a person with feelings.
Mon Mothma's outfit in that last scene! HOLY SHIT. I really need a longass video essay on the costume design on this show.
It was all so good. I cannot believe how good this show is. It makes me happy to have it in the world.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
Andor comment shamelessly stolen from Mastodon, but one I 100000% agree with: When I die, bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
